First, you need to make sure that what you have are millipedes or centipedes. People tend to confuse them, for some reason. Try the first link for that. The next two links give you suggestions about what to do for each kind, and the last is some more about millipedes. Hope some of this may be of help to you. Good luck!!

If they're in the garden and eating the babby plants then you can make up a spray of garlic in water with some vegetable oil and treat the at risk plants with that. It repels rather than kills them. Try cleaning up the leaf litter that they are attracted to and hand clearing them if they get to plague proportions. Try to avoid poisons at all costs...they don't know you just want them to take out the pests and they go rampaging through lady bugs, butterflies and bees as well...all of which are friends in the garden.

Yes, buy a pack of centipedes and get them to attack the millipedes.

You may need to spray or but granulates out in the yard.
